Karl.. This is one I thought you might have some insight on.

Over the weekend a low oil pressure sending unit that is mounted on the interior wall of the stb engine room failed. Allowing approx 3 gallons of oil to be pumped into the bilge before I knew it was happening. The oil was contained to the area of the bilge that is inboard of the innermost engine...
